Love our community pool. We have lots of fun & enjoy our time with our kiddos. So glad it’s safe with security. I love it’s for residents only. Pool is clean even though one particular day I seen a grown man spit in the pool, ew!

β€œNice pool. Hours need to be changed though. Need later hours. At least 2 days a week. Web site has incorrect hours. Currently they close at about 6:45 pm, but are open until 8 or 9 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Unless it's movie night or some other events. These late nights are great, they need to start at the beginning of the summer opening and continue although the summer.”
